Adblock plus type help please

[Guest]

Ok finally accepted my old comp. is close to dying. New comp. is Microsoft edge, gone to download adblock plus and their isn't an adblock version for it Any suggestions?

Sorry, I am a bit ratty as I have been faffing most of the day. My phone is faulty as well and I have also killed my Wi-Fi adapter Please talk slowy as my brain has gone on shut down and whilst I am comfortable with comps I am definitely far from being a wiz. with one.

Personally I would download a traditional browser (firefox or chrome, probably) and use that with adblock plus until a trustworthy blocker is available for Edge.

^^^TY. Now done and sorted. Off for a cuppa and a calm down

I use Win 10 but with Chrome in preference to Edge - which I haven't even looked at!

Google Chrome for Windows 10 - Everything You Need To Know - Chrome Story

Then download adblock plus for Chrome

If you used a different browser before - like Safari or Opera, you should still be able to get a version that works with Win10.

I'm sure someone who knows a bit more about it will be along soon

Maybe because i am on a mac, but the ad´s do not bother me at all. Even though others have tried to help me ad block i do not see the point. just either side, no pop ups, sometimes helps me along the way
I do not like to see you on the rant thread either, it can be a horrible thread for things being taken out of content.
Good luck x

^^^Rant removed, I have calmed down now. Computer is up and sorted, new phone is up and almost sorted, new wi-fi adapter on order...........and breathe

Very happy for you, technology is the worst!!! the other day when i wanted a shower very badly (i smelled ) and needed to be the quickest of all time, the boiler would not work.

Well lets just say i grabbed the shampoo and threw it and it smashed everywhere, there is shampoo on the ceiling and i have not opened the door for 3 days, maybe i should clean it tomorrow.

[veggiechicken]

I wondered what the smell was

[Lisasbolt]

I do not want to talk about it
But seriously that is the investment this year, i hope, i have to run between bedroom and garage to see if it works and the waste of water and the coldness drives you literally insane whilst tripping up over a towel!!!! breath lisa breath.
